Aji is from Guangzhou.
After graduation, he worked as a non-staff reporter for a tabloid.
He is also an amateur writer.
He specializes in creating documentary literature, but he has never found any good subject matter.
The royalties he earns are just enough to live on.
In addition to his young age, his fame is even worse.
It's out of the question, and the manuscript will be rejected eight out of ten times, but he loves this industry very much and feels that being able to record the truth is of extraordinary significance.
That year, Aji went to Yunnan to collect scenery.
He took a truck on the mountain road near Fuxian Lake and chatted with the driver all over the place.
The driver, Master Xu, was a warm-hearted chatterbox and very nosy.
When he learned that Aji was a writer, he asked him why he didn't write about Fuxian Lake.
There were so many strange things here that he could not finish them for days and nights. .
A Ji said: "What I write is all documentary literature, not the kind of random novels.
How could I write it just by listening to it?"
Just like the Qigong craze a few years ago, some writers wrote in the book "A certain person" A qigong master, when he was young, he got lost in the mountains.
He saw an old man with a white beard sitting on a tree branch.
His beard was several feet long, hanging down to the ground.
The old man looked at this child.
"If his bones are extraordinary, he will be awarded four volumes of the Heavenly Book, and he will become a master after leaving the mountain."
Isn't this obviously nonsense?
He dares to advertise it as "documentary literature."
When he arrived at Fuxian Lake, he was still very interested, so he handed over a cigarette and asked for details, wanting to know what weird and bizarre things had happened here.
The driver, Master Xu, whose hometown is near Fuxian Lake, talked a lot in the car: From the map, Fuxian Lake is shaped like a gourd, wide in the north and south, narrow in the middle, and the water is deepest in the north.
Deep, but I don’t know how deep.
It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, some people tied hemp ropes to the iron ox and sank it.
The ropes of the whole boat were all put out and the bottom was not yet explored.
Old people often say that "there are spirits in the mountains and monsters in the deep water."
Fuxian Lake is unfathomable and has an eye open to the sea, so there are naturally monsters in it.
Everyone of local age knows that zombies were caught in the lake before liberation.
Some people also say that the thing is a monkey in the water, but why does it have no tail?
It looks like a water ghost.
It has a lot of white hair on its body.
It looks like a human but not a human.
It has a nose and eyes.
It is full of fishy odor and has many fleshy insects on its body.
Use a net to pick it up and carry it.
This thing was still alive when we arrived in the village, and it whined and screamed all night long.
When the dogs in the village heard the sound, they were all so frightened that they trembled with their tails between their legs.
The villagers thought that this thing was ominous and was transformed from a zombie that sank at the bottom of the lake, so they beat it to death with sticks and fed it to the dogs.
No one knew what kind of monster it was.
Those were really ignorant days, and now it would be worth a lot of money if you could catch one alive.
Aji was fascinated by what he heard.
First of all, he felt very strange, and secondly, he felt deeply sorry.
If what the driver said was true, if the water monster caught by the villagers in Fuxian Lake could be left alive, it would definitely be big news that would shock the world. , this is probably an extinct deep-water animal.
It seems more bizarre than the discovery of savages in Shennongjia.

It is really a huge pity that the water monster was killed by the villagers, but did any bones remain?
Aji Xun thought, after all, it had been decades since this incident, and the hope of leaving any remains was very slim, and it had never been reported in the newspaper, so there must have been nothing left, so he just asked casually, but who knew the answer the driver would give?
But unexpectedly: "The village where the zombies were caught from the lake disappeared completely that night, and now it can't even be found on the map."
A Ji was very surprised: "How could such a thing happen when the whole village disappeared?"
Master Xu said that the village where the water monster was caught in the lake is called "Fierce Dog Village" because there have been many vicious dogs in the village since ancient times.
They are much larger than the surrounding dogs and have very ferocious temperaments, making them most suitable as hunting dogs.
According to unconfirmed reports, these are dog breeds brought from the Mobei grasslands when the Mongolian army invaded Yunnan, and are not local dogs.
It can be seen from this that this "Mengdog Village" is an ancient village that has existed near Fuxian Lake for hundreds of years.
The villagers are very superstitious and have always spread the legend that there are zombies at the bottom of the lake, so they beat the water monster to death with sticks.
As a result, that night There was an earthquake and the whole village was It fell into the lake.
There were dozens of men, women, and children in the village, but no one could escape.
Only a few people who went out survived.
By the time people nearby heard the news and rushed to see the monster, the village had already sunk to the bottom of the lake.
Now, I can't even find that place on the map.
Therefore, it is rumored that the water monster killed by the villagers may not be a zombie, but the god in the lake, causing the whole village to suffer divine punishment.
Aji was deeply attracted by Master Xu's story.
Although he also suspected that Master Xu was talking nonsense, all he could think about after returning was this matter.
At that time, many friends advised Aji that there was no future in writing manuscripts, it was difficult to support a family, and he might not even be able to find a wife.
It was better to return to Guangzhou as soon as possible, collect some money to buy a Yamaha motorcycle, set up a fish stall, and be self-employed, and the income was quite high. considerable.
Aji also knew that his future was bleak, and his ideals and ambitions could not be a living thing after all, so he could not help but think about becoming a self-employed person.
However, he could not let go of the rumors he heard in the car, so he decided to write one last report, and then returned to Guangzhou to set up business.
Fish stall, so I made some preparations and went to Fuxian Lake to investigate and collect materials.
Aji first went to the county archives to check the county annals and a large amount of information, and learned that Fuxian Lake is a fault-corroded lake.
Earthquakes have occurred frequently since ancient times, and the surrounding area has been constantly collapsing and being submerged by the lake.
It is said that there is an ancient city at the bottom of the lake, at least two.
It has a history of more than a thousand years.
As for the specific dynasty and which generation the ruins sank into the lake, there is no conclusion yet.
The county annals also record that whenever there is heavy fog, a dazzling white light will appear in the lake.
Since the county annals are trustworthy, these things are relatively credible.
While Aji was checking the information, he stayed in a guest house in the county town and inadvertently heard some information.
A few years ago, a plane from the Air Force passed through Fuxian Lake.
The instrument suddenly failed and the plane crashed directly into the lake.
In order to search for the wreckage of the plane and the driver The troops used large-scale diving equipment to retrieve the bodies of the soldiers.
Although the wreckage of the plane was not found, when using deep-water periscope equipment, it was discovered that there seemed to be houses and buildings in a very deep hole under Fuxian Lake, and there were countless dead people inside.
The bodies were white and not rotten.
Not bad, swaying back and forth with the undercurrent, just like many people walking on the bottom of a dark and cold lake.
This thing sounds simply unbelievable, maybe it's just gossip circulating in the fields, mostly rumors.
However, Aji knew that a few years ago, an Air Force plane did lose control and crashed into Fuxian Lake.
The wreckage has not been found so far.
This is not a fabrication.
Divers found many zombies at the bottom of the lake, and even caught a water monster in the lake with the villagers.
The situation is consistent with the situation.
Although it may not all be true, there must be something fishy in such rumors.
Aji searched the information for several days and found only a few records about Menggou Village falling to the bottom of the lake due to an earthquake during the Republic of China, but there was no mention of villagers discovering zombies in the lake.
The situation of the earthquake is also unclear.

After all, there was little information at that time, and there was a war outside.
It was probably during the time when the People's Liberation Army launched the Huaihai Campaign.
Fuxian Lake was far away in Yunnan.
Compared with the battle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in the Huaihai Battlefield, which involved thousands of troops, , a small village with dozens of households fell into the bottom of the lake.
At that time, it was not a big event at all.
It was rare for it to be mentioned in the county annals or newspapers.
The records found so far are not enough to write a report.
The most difficult thing is that no direct evidence has been found.
Just relying on some folk rumors is completely untenable.
Aji had no choice but to go find the driver, Lao Xu.
Lao Xu lost a lot of money gambling, and he just had a bad hand.
He was looking for a remote place to endure it for a few days.
When he heard that Aji wanted to investigate the affairs of Mengdog Village, he volunteered to act as a guide, as long as Aji was willing to pay some labor fees.
He could lead the way to where the village sank to the bottom of the lake
